Basic Guidelines for HTML Style
Article:
Here are some tips to consider in order to make a well designed web site.
Try not to use Click here as a way to point to another page. Use the actual text of the page as the link. This will help in bookmarking and in linking.
Use alt tags for graphics and image maps. This is good for visitors to your site that use web browsers without graphics.
Graphics are very useful in enhancing the look of a web site but too many graphics can overpower the content of the site making it difficult to navigate. Try to find a balance of graphics and text. Also, it would be a good idea to define the image sizes in the tags to keep load times from getting to long.
The web site content should be the center of attention of the web site but too much emphasis on making it look bold could take away from the overall look. Also, browsers work differently with headers and other style tags.
It is important to make the site as general as possible in terms of the specific tools and markup used. Using Netscape specific markup, for example, can create unusual results in other browsers. But it can be useful if it is for a specific purpose that a web site needs to be created in one format over another.
Keep track of URLs for the web site. There is nothing more frustrating to visiting a site with broken or outdated links everywhere.
It is a good idea to use a solid colored background for web sites. This is especially true of sites that contain large amounts of text. It needs to be clear and readable. When the background color is selected, try to also select a text color that will work well with the background.
Take advantage of attributes that will help keep loading pages quick. Specifying attributes like height and width will make loading wait times kept to a minimum.
It is also a good idea to have some sort of contact info on your site so that you can get feedback from others on how to improve your site.
Finally, the most important tip is to be creative when designing your web site. The more creative the web site, the more attractive it will likely be to others.
